Karen

She followed him cautiously, nervous but curious about the direction he would take. His hand on her back felt like a burning ember, sending warm sensations through her sensitive skin. They walked leisurely through the corridors, but Karen couldn't stop focusing on the hand on her back. She didn't even notice where they were going until they reached the main doors. These doors, large and ornate, were intimidating. The guards standing in front of the gate gave a deep salute as the couple passed and opened the door with sincere respect.

Once outside, he finally stopped, still without a word. His arm slipped gently around her shoulder, noting the wound on her shoulder. With a gentle touch, he pressed on her injured shoulder, careful not to cause pain. She felt her body begin to float, like the unforgettable sensation of floating in the air she had once experienced with him. Her clothes rustled in the cool night breeze, the moon shining brightly in the dark sky.

    Xavier He slowly picked her up, forcing her to walk backwards. His hold on her kept her from stumbling. His hands gripped her shoulders, clutching the fabric in his hands as her back hit the tree trunk and she gasped, unknowingly allowing him into her mouth. He dominated the kiss, quickly mastering her mouth, all her senses, and all she could do was hold on to him. She felt a hand go to her hip and another slide down her cheek, down to her jaw to scrape its nails gently against her neck, making her shiver with pleasure, a small moan escaping her lips to be caught by his mouth. He devoured her and she let him. She felt him move closer, his chest pressed against hers, making her breasts ache and full. She gasped at the intimate contact, burning as the hand on her neck caressed her collarbone before sliding down through her clothing to her chest. Her nipples hardened instantly in his palms as he moved his hands in rough motions over her breasts, stimulating her nipples. She kissed him

    Carolina She opened her eyes slowly, slowly fighting the blur that enveloped her vision. Eventually, the wooden ceiling above her became clearer. Taking in her surroundings, she realized that she was lying on a low bed with a rather musty dress covering her like a blanket. As she tilted her head to see more of the cramped room she was in, she realized how weak she was. Even moving her head felt like an effort, and all of her limbs felt limp and heavy. A creaking sound from the floor nearby made her turn her head towards it, and there she saw a very strange girl standing at the entrance of the small room where she was lying. Carolina assumed it was a little girl, but it was unlike any child she had ever seen. The girl's face was covered in horrible scars, with striking differences in skin color in places. Her eyes were mismatched, one brown and one blue, the blue slightly larger than the brown, both staring at her. One of her arms looked too long for her body, stretched out to touch

    Rylan He was awakened from his perch in the tree, groggy and limp, by a pleading voice that he believed to be Carolina calling him. He found himself surrounded by a strange mist that he had seen swirling over the ground while he slept. He realized that he was too tired and weak for no apparent reason. He correctly guessed that the mist was affecting him. Quickly, he grabbed his weapon from its perch and used it to chase away the odorless mist. Immediately, the undead she-wolf emerged from the hut and stepped out of the trees as the flute began to sound. "Hah, you again," he growled as he followed the corpses, his nose once more assaulted by the foul odor they carried. "Disgusting. Hey, Uma! I know you're in there. Give Carolina back!" "You want to steal my treasure, stupid wolf? You can't have her!" yelled Uma as she came out of the hut, pointing at him and instructing her minions to swarm him. "You are nothing, so stay nothing," she scolded. "Kill him." "I don't think so. Attack

    Nathan He was a hybrid, a rogue and also the descendant of a witch who had been allied with the darkness for a long time; he was also a dark lord who was obsessed with immortality and was contemplating his failure to achieve his goals. He was deeply disappointed that Uma had failed in her attempt to kill Carolina and Rylan. He stood in the quiet, dark room with Claire, his loyal follower, facing him while holding a magic mirror that showed the latest developments. "Damn, that guy," he spat out the words, his frustration growing. He felt bewildered by Uma's inability to deal with her ever-living enemies. The failure fueled his anger and he cursed Uma inwardly. "What a wasted effort." He looked to the side, his eyes empty, lost in dark memories. He remembered his first encounter with Uma, a dark priestess who had become more and more insane over time. She was an attractive woman who could be used by him, or so he hoped. It was easy to make an obsession out of Uma and convince her th

    Selene If the outside of the house was gloomy, the inside was even worse. How this woman, who lived alone and was a princess, could live and survive here was another mystery. Selene had a bad feeling about this place and the woman still clinging to Mike's arm. Jealousy, however, made her ignore her instincts and focus only on the back of the couple. Amy led them into a room lit by a dull lamp on a low table. The chairs were old and dirty, moth-eaten, and the room smelled of mold. Samuel ignored the politeness and covered his nose with the sleeve of his robe as he entered the small room. They sat around a low table, Amy clinging to Mike, while Selene and Samuel sat across from them. Mike noticed Selene's piercing gaze and swallowed guiltily before turning to the woman, smiling hesitantly and asking, "So why are you here alone in a place like this? A cough from Selene made him hastily continue, "Ah, yes. My friends here are Selene and Samuel, Princess." Then he laughed nervously. Am

    Mike "I'll-" he started to get up as well, intending to help Amy, when Selene cut him off again. "I'll help you, Princess Amy," she got up and followed her outside, who nodded her head gracefully in thanks. Selene gritted her teeth at her exquisite politeness, knowing she could never imitate it. She was not meant to be a beautiful wallflower, and she stared at her rough, unfeeling hands. She was meant for war, nothing more, not even love, it seemed. Not once did she turn to look Mike in the eye as she followed Amy out of the room. He watched the two women leave the room in silence, deep in thought, and what he was thinking made him feel a strange tightness in his chest. She refused to look at him... "You're really stupid, you know that?" he heard Samuel say to him in a disgusted tone. His head turned to fix the man with a stern look, a frown on his handsome face. "And why would you say that, Sam?" Leaning against the wall behind him, Samuel crossed his arms behind his head, his

    SeleneFelix followed his owner, sensing her sadness as he walked gently by her side in his normal wolf form. She purred softly, trying to convey comfort, but she was deep in thought, so deep that she didn't realize how far she had gone until she heard the sound of a rock crashing into the water. The sound startled her, and she immediately jumped into a fighting stance, glancing around to see what had interrupted her whirlwind reverie. She felt Felix by her side at such times. Whenever she was disturbed, Felix was always at her side, calming and protecting her. She tensed when she saw someone standing behind her at the edge of the small pond. At first she thought whoever it was must be a woman, because of the beautiful long black hair that flowed down to a slender waist above her ass - but her shoulders were too big and broad for a woman, her legs were long, and the person was tall, taller than her, she was sure. The sun began to set, making the figure glow orange. Then he turned hi

    Mike Samuel sighed contentedly and patted his round belly after eating. After a long and tiring day, the young wolf felt lethargic, and exhaustion quickly crept up on him. He yawned with heavy eyes, then curled up into a ball in the corner of the long-neglected room. He ignored the smell that pierced his nose, the smell of the old and moldy room, and the two other people who shared the room with him, both fast asleep. Beside him, Mike's mind stayed awake. He couldn't shake the shadow of Selene that crept into his mind. He felt unhappy when he remembered how she looked dejected, hiding the pain behind her closed expression. He knew that he was the cause of her hurt feelings. His heart ached for the pain he had unintentionally caused the woman he knew he truly loved. He was distracted by his thoughts of Selene. Even when Amy tried to get his attention by getting closer to him, he felt like there was an unbridgeable emotional gulf between them. Although he tried to answer Amy's wishes

  • Entangled Fates : The Alpha's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 112 : Epilogue: Say I Do

    Karen For the last year after Nathan's death, she lived with Xavier. She had told him that she needed time to get to know him and for their relationship to grow before making a big commitment, and during the time they had been 'dating', he had been giving her several tutors to assist her in adapting to her new life. So many tutors, she thought with a sigh. At first, she only had tutors who helped her explain and control her powers now that she was a full-blooded she-wolf, while others taught her combat and how to fight hand-to-hand, while still others taught her to use swords and daggers. Although she seemed to be making progress after a year, Karen knew that she was far from proficient. It would take years for her to become a fighter and master her new weapons, even though she always carried a bow and arrow. However, a few months ago, she had surprised Xavier by asking how to behave as Luna in the Westwood Pack. She could see the concern and eager anticipation in his eyes when he r

    Karen "You're acting weird, Rylan," she said with a frown as her best friend led her out of the place where she used to play hide-and-seek with Raine. Instead of fighting with her like she thought he would, Rylan glanced at her before looking away. He crossed his arms and started walking back and forth in front of her. This made her upset because she assumed that his weird behavior had something to do with her changed appearance. "Why the hell can't you look at me?" While walking over to him, she grabbed his shoulders and forced him to face her. "Why is it so hard for you to look me in the eye, Rylan?" She demanded, her voice trembling. Why wasn't he looking at her? Could it

    Karen Her arms wrapped around his body, lowering him onto her, and when their naked bodies met for the first time, it was like ecstasy. Her hardened nipples poked at his muscular chest, her curves fitting perfectly next to his rock-hard body like she was made just for him. It was a piece of perfection. She stared straight at him, meeting the burning intensity in his golden eyes, making her body shiver. That Xavier craved her so much never failed to surprise and amaze her, but it also made her grateful, because she felt the same way. He had seen her naked before, yet Xavier still seemed mesmerized by what he saw, as if seeing her for the first time. Hence, she did not feel ashamed under his gaze. Far from it. In fact, she felt beautiful. She called out his name again. Her body burned and ached. She needed him to d

  • Entangled Fates : The Alpha's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 109 : A Love Unleashed 1

    Karen He means it... As she thought with teary eyes, she knew it was true. She could see it written all over his face and in his eyes. All this time, she had thought that he had such little feelings, never seeing a hint of emotion on his face since the first day she met him a few years ago. But she was wrong. Xavier did have feelings, and judging by his expression, he felt a lot of things. So much so, that she could practically hear his heartbreak, and somehow, it only mended her own. The veil that shrouded him had been lifted, and what she saw had removed her resentment for him, taken away her bitterness, and left only the love she felt for him swelling in her heart. As she ran towards him, slamming into his chest, Karen increased her strength, causing his body to be pushed back slightly, but he remained upright and didn't hesitate to wrap his arms around her. The desperation in his hug confirmed his words, chasing away the darkness in her heart. "I forgive you," she whispered into

    Karen One week later after the battle... She was in her room, curled up on her bed, and holding a pillow to her chest. One hand held the pillow while the other stretched out over her bed. Inside her fist was a sacred moonstone. Nathaniel was dead, killed by Xavier, with no help from her at all. She should have felt happy, relieved, hell, she didn't know, at the death of her most bitter enemy. Especially when all her friends were safe. After their moment of heartfelt embrace, Xavier used his remaining strength to carry her back to the pack house. It was the last time she saw him, but she was told that he was recovering and wouldn't die from his injuries. That was two days ago, and she was lost in thought. Her eyes were fixed on her clenched fist that held the gemstone, the sacred moonstone, the heirloom of the werewolf lords. Karen did not need to open her fingers to know that so far she had failed to purify the stone. The gemstone was still black in color, silently indicating that

    Karen Xavier stood slightly hunched over, his fine hair flowing around his angelic face, almost hiding his expression from her. Blood dripped down across his chin from his mouth - a mouth that she couldn't help but remember kissing and getting lost in - but what brought tears to her eyes was the dagger that had stabbed him in the back, protruding out of his body for her to see. While his blades were partially sheathed in the ground, a line where the daggers had cut into the ground was beyond them, as if he was trying to use his daggers to stop his forward motion. One dagger was stuck in his right leg, stuck firmly, most likely adding to the pain that he was experiencing. Another dagger dug into his left shoulder, and another pierced his left side. A large amount of blood stained his white shirt. Staring into the face of the man she was growing t

    Karen That's for sure. Xavier was right. Then her eyes narrowed on Nathan. Although Xavier had stolen more than she could have imagined, Nathan was still her enemy, and although she did not remember anything that happened after her conversation with Nathan until she woke up in Xavier's arms, she was not stupid. Although her spiritual energy was gone, perhaps gone forever, somehow she could still sense the fragments of the sacred moonstone. There was a large piece that belonged to Nathan, nestled in his chest, in what should have been his heart, but there were two separate fragments inside of her. She could practically sense their dark presence deep in her chest, dark and riddled with corruption. Nathan had played this game many times before, not only controlling Karen in the past but also many other people he controlled using the damaged fragments. She didn't know what she had done while under Nathan's control, but from the scent of Xavier's blood, and Nathan's blood on her nails, it

  • Entangled Fates : The Alpha's Reluctant Mate   Chapter 105 : Dark Awakening

    Xavier ‘If I can't find and remove the fragment, then I will eliminate Nathan's control.’ With grim resolve emanating from his golden-colored eyes, he rushed to confront Karen, responding to her attack when she returned to attack him, or so it seemed at first. Instead, he somersaulted over her head at the last second, landing a few meters behind her, and before she could turn around and attack him again, Xavier snapped her wrist, using the rope that had been thrown from his hand with controlled accuracy. As Karen turned to face him, he moved around her, immobilizing her arms to her sides, and then pulling her arms back as he lunged at her. Catching her near his chest, he easily locked her against him, controlling her attempts to break free. With his arm still around her and the other arm wrapped around her waist, Xavier used his free hand and dug his fingers into the blood clot at the back of her head, forcing her head back at a painful angle, making it impossible for her to move h

    Xavier A movement caught his attention at the mouth of the small cave and out of it came a woman wearing a familiar dress, a ruby red stain was also drawn on her face, her dark brown hair matted in places from the drying blood. There were no visible wounds on the woman he was so intimately familiar with. Perhaps seeing his perplexity, Nathan spoke up. "Don't worry, Alpha. The blood is not hers. Though, I'm afraid that you are already too late if you want to see Maya. We had a... Well, a little disagreement, if you know." His sarcasm did not go unnoticed by Xavier. Although he did not know why or how Maya was dead. So much blood had soaked Karen that he wondered if Karen had killed the she-wolf. He hadn't thought about that possibility, not when his eyes caught the physical changes in the woman he cherished so muc
